🌟✨Ready for a hot cup of truth? In this season premiere of “What’s the Tea with Gen X, Y, Z,” Dr. Melissa, Amber, and Zion take you on an emotional (and often hilarious) journey through what really happens when the kids grow up and leave the nest. Dr. Melissa gets personal about “getting fired” from her 34-year job as a full-time mom and stepping into the uncharted waters of empty nesting. The hosts spill the tea from every angle—parent, child, and everything in between.

How do you redefine yourself when the kids are grown? Why do those family roles feel impossible to shake? What happens when boundaries, communication, and a healthy dose of love create… well, a bit of messy chaos?

With lots of laughter, true vulnerability, and a few almost-tearful moments, this episode dives into generational perspectives on shifting parental roles. Whether you’re a parent, a “grown” child, or just gearing up for your own next big transition, you’ll find honest advice, practical wisdom, and comfort in knowing you’re not doing this alone.

Pull up a chair (and maybe a tissue)—this tea is piping hot and refreshingly real.

Tune in, and let's brew up a conversation that crosses age borders with love, understanding, and perhaps a little bit of critique—because when it comes to love and life, we're all figuring it out, one cup at a time.🎙️🔥☕
